Everyone is looking for discounts these days, but discounts on Apple products are usually fairly hard to come by. It's not like there are Apple coupons in the Sunday paper or seasonal sales at your local Apple Store. Now that Apple products are available through other channels, though, we are starting to see a few more. For instance, Best Buy is offering iPhone discounts to its Reward Zone members for the next week.

Best Buy is already offering refurbished iPhones for $149/$249, but the difference this time around is that the temporary discounts are good for new iPhones. Standard Reward Zone members can get $50 off an 8GB or 16GB iPhone, bringing the prices down to $149 and $249, respectively. If you're a Premier Silver member, the discount becomes $100, so you can get a new iPhone for $100 or $200, which is nothing to sneeze at.

As with any deal, though, there are conditions. First of all, you have to be a Reward Zone member as of February 21, so there's no running out today and signing up. The deal also requires a two-year contract and an in-store purchase. Still, if you drop a lot of coin at Best Buy and have been waiting for a reason to pounce on an iPhone, now may be the time.
